Nutritional supplementation
Sustainable nutritional suplementation – Spirulina
While implementing ever dependable supplementary nutrition program to the mal-nourished children, pregnant and lactating women who came across about Spirulina algae and its nutritive value through health action magazine. In association with one of the board members Mr. Eshwari Kumar, a commercial tax officer we have approached Murugappa Chettair Research Centre, Chennai for technical know-how.
In spite of financial and technical inadequacies with 3 years efforts, we have established a viable production unit to the required scale and undertook an impact assessment study with 100 mal-nourished women. The impact assessment clearly established Spirulina’s importance on addressing the problems like anemia, gynecological problems, general weakness, improvement in breast milk, relief to the diabetics, skin problem and various other micro mal-nutritional manifestation symptoms.

In our production mechanism product is subjected to sun due to heating drying where in basic nutritional values are not lost
